      Amusing Trial in which a Yankee Lawyer Renders a Just Verdict

      A Slave sold at Auction.

      A time there was, when no one thought

      It sin, to hold a slave he'd bought,

      And of his strength have the command,

      As much as of his house and land.

      A Yankee Lawyer long had kept

      A negro-man with whom he slept.

      And ate, and Sabbath day,

      He half the time from church would stay;

      When Cuff his master's garments wore.—

      'Twas strange you say, but he was poor;

      And though he cared not for Cuff's soul,

      Yet such the times, that on the whole,

      CAGE.

      "Disguise thyself as thou wilt, still, slavery, thou art a bitter draught."—Sterne.

      His slave must to the meeting go,

      If 'twas for nothing but a show.

      They lived on thus for several years—

      One would not think, that many tears

      Would fall from off that shining face,

      So sleek and smooth, or he would trace

      Конец ознакомительного фрагмента.
